The Lil' Inker Designs team have joined up with the Designed To Color team to celebrate two amazing events - the Hue's Who feature of Lil Inker's Designs as well as the first birthday of Designed To Color!
Here is a birthday card I made for a little boy...
My recipe

I also used the Crafters Workshop Stitch Doodle Dot template and Echo Park This and That Charming papers. I am entering my card into the Simon Says Stamp anything goes challenge.
Back to the hop! You should have come here from the very sweet Leah and you now need to hop off to the very lovely Lis. Here's the full hop list in case you get lost...
There will be TWO prizes given away during the hop. One on each end of the hop. To enter simply
comment on each hopper's blog. So, leave a comment here telling me what sort of birthday cards are more difficult for you to make - mine is definitely for my grandma as she's not keen on CAS or cute styles!
The hop ends on March 7th 11:59 CST. The winners to the prizes
will be posted no

Mary, this is adorable! Thank you so much for helping us with the hop at DTC. You did a super amazing job! I really hope to see you submit to our calls in the future!!!
Hi Mary, what a cute card, I love those balloons too x
Eeeep! How incredibly adorable is this? I have GOT to have those stitch templates!!!!! Please tell me you are submitting to our magazine because, girlfriend--you got talent!!
For me--fussy and fancy are WAYYYY harder. I like to keep ALL my cards simple, whether for birthdays or any occasion!
Thanks for teaming up with us at DTC!

How cute--love the balloons. I have difficulty making shabby chic type of cards for any occasion including birthdays.
adorable card. I love your idea for the balloon strings. I would have to say I have the most problem making cards for my husband. He does not really like the cute and cuddly type cards. Still trying to work out the masculine ones.
so super cute! what a fun adorable card :)
Mary this is so cute...gorgeous card and great colours

Precious! Love the faux stitches and the colors!

Hello again,
I love the balloons the first time i saw a card with it that you have showing us.
But now i want them when i see this card.
The sentiment is just perfect with the balloons.
Also i do like the little dog and again i'm amazed of your coloring.
It looks like a really simple card but it really pops out of the paterned paper.
It's really great that you can leaves things out instead of putting things on the card.
Have a wonderful day!
Omg this is the sweetest!!!!
Ah this is adorable Mary J
Hugs

Such a sweet card! Love the balloons.
Adorable hun...as always...:o)
biggest of hugs Vicky xx
Adorable!! I love your coloring, and those balloons are AWESOME! TFS The kind of birthday cards that are hard for me....male. Male cards in general. So many of the stamp images I have are female, and I just LOVE bling and glitz. It's really hard for me to make a card without using Stickles. LOL
Sweet image, love those balloons....
So sweet! Love his little pink cheeks and how he is colored and fabulous dimension!
So cute and gorgeous!

Love the patterened balloons!
Just brilliant!

Aaah, it would be for male cards. I find it so hard to make!! Im more of a girly type lady:-)
Awwww that image is just adorable and I LOVE the colourful balloons.
Sue xx
Fab card so adorable. Love the cute image and fabby papers, great layout too xx
Super sweet card, Mary! I love those balloons.
Most difficult for me are those generic, non-cute, for someone you don't really know type. I find it such a struggle to find a stamp for those cards. So much so that when I need to make one of those cards I often go stampless. (Which is a lot less dirty than it sounds! :-D)
Oh Mary this is fabulous, who says you don't do LIM or CAS cards stunning example of both.
Kath x
Wow, your card is just rosaries cute. Love the balloons and these images are making me smile.
Aww this is SO sweet Mary! what a fab design… I love the colours and those wonderful balloons! :-))
Hope you're having a good week!
Big hugs
Sue xx
LOVE!! Thanks for sharing :)
Hi Mary J!
Gorgeous card, how adoreable is this little fella!!! aww :)
I LOVE his card. It is so my style. Hardest cards to make for me is masculine for employees.
So, so cute! love that sweet little image and the balloons... plus, how creative on the strings!
Adorable! love the cut outs in the balloons! I always have a hard time making guy bday cards, especially for my brother-in-laws!

Love the cute bunny on this card and the CAS style. I find it difficult to create cards for male family/friends esp. my hubby.
Mary - Love the card and the balloons are adorable. Sending some bloggy love from the hop. Glad I was able to visit.

What a sweet image! Those colors and balloons are perfect for a little boy's birthday!
This is SO COOL! I love how the die embosses a stitched effect around the square. Too, too cool. Love this card!
always love your card creation, so fun to look at, Mary.
I have hard time churning out birthday card for boy/male. I am simply into pink, flower and glitter in all area...can't leave these girlie stuff in making card..
Awww, those paper pieced balloons are so adorable with the kitty!
Adorable card! Love that sweet pup and the fun balloons!
Hard to make... sometimes one for my Mom as she wouldn't like certain styles.
Your card is great. I love the green plaid it's perfect for the card. I love the balloon die (I have an love it) and the cute image is just too precious. I love the way you laid out the card. Great sentiment too. Really fits the card.
I love everything about your card, Mary! This bunny is super cute and those dies are heavenly (unfortunately the shipping costs for those gorgeous Lil' Inker products are very high).
Big hugs, Anja
So cute Mary and love the way you used the balloons!
Really cute card..love the colors! Thanks.
I love your clean and simple card. Love it. Cards I struggle with are the vintage ones and shabby chic. Maybe because I dont really know what shabby chic means.
OMGoodness How CUTE is this little Sweetie!! 8-) So Adorable Mary! Love the fun balloons and paper pierced balloon strings too! 8-)
Hugs

Such a sweet puppy, love the star balloons too!
So cute! I love the colors, and that sweet image!
I definitely struggle with masculine cards...I love glitter and frilly stuff which doesn't work very well on cards for boys :)
<3 Emily L.
love all the LID dies you used! I am a fan of LID dies, sh... don't tell hubby - hehehe! Love the card - it is simply adorable.
Cute card. Love the bunny. Iris
Such a cute card Mary! Fab design, love the paper piercing for balloon strings :o) Hugs, Lisa x
I do try to keep up with you Mary.. but I fail miserably!! Stunning cards since my last visit.. love this little doggie with his balloons, and the long stripey dress on the previous one.. your creations are always sooooooo inspiring and always make me think 'now why didn't I try that type of design'!!
Hugs

I love your card and I think the hardest birthday cards for me to make are for men/boys.

soooo cute! perfect card for a little boy! Card for teenage boys is THE most difficult for me! ;D
Mary, this is just superb!!! Love how you used the balloons and the stitched mat too. I would love to get a card from you...lol.
Very nice!
Very nice!
What a great card. I like seeing cards for boys - mine always seem too feminine. :-) April
I like to make cute, whimsical cards. When I have to get mushy I kind of freeze up. Love the puppy.
Awesome card for a little boy!
Need to add the most difficult cards for me to make are the ones I wait until the last minute to do and am too stressed out to let the creative mojo flow.
so the hop is AWESOME, and it's been great having you Inkie Gals hopping with us DTC Gals! but darn it, i must have the stamp you used. here is me, trying to be all good and exercising some willpower, but now i have a wish list. THANKS! :) for the inspiration - your card is beautiful!
Love this, Mary J! Perfect use of patterned papers with the white. I love that pup and the balloons too. Your grandma doesn't like CAS or cute?! she like grunge? just kidding, lol
